Access control? What access control? :-) Our use case has only one effective "user" on the NFS side (an automatic nightly build process), so there isn't a need to restrict certain areas of the file space. If there were, however, I don't see why you couldn't use uid/gid bits in the normal manner. (On the AFS side, the server runs under a dedicated principal that restricts its access to only the areas it needs, so at least it cannot be used to break into restricted areas of AFS.) _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
